The program, divided into several parts, gave an opportunity for all to show their ability, and of these a young man answering to the name of Wil- Ap- pearing first as a singer, he later ! danced, gave several monologues, ren- 4 | dered whistling solos, gave a ventrilo- quist demonstration, waiian steel guitar, played the ac- cordion, and did numerous other stunts, any one of which would have made an excellent single vaudeville number.

Frank Mayo is the star in “Honor Bound,” which opened a three days’ engagement at Fox's vesterday after- noon. The story is by Jacques Jaccard and-the entire production was directed by its author. Larry Semon is presented in a rollicking comedy, “The Suitor,” and Mutt and Jeff divide with him the laughing honors in “The Parlor Bol- shevist.” A new and always interesting Fox News is included in the screen part of the program.
